Over the past month or so, FH and I have been doing a lot of work on our relationship, issues with BM, and skids. We actually followed through with this and went to our first session last week. It was just the introduction session, but I have a great feeling about this Dr! We have decided to continue sessions in hopes of creating better communication between us. I am also hoping to learn a few techniques on dealing with the psycho BM. Lately, I've felt like I am the only woman FH is worried about keeping happy, which is a great feeling! We talk more and keep each other informed on what goes on with the exes. I'm very happy at this point, and working through all the grim is helping that feeling tremendously Smile We are laughing more and getting back to the way we used to be, which I love!
As for skids.. some things never change! They are still trying their best to cause chaos, as always. FH and I are standing strong side by side and dealing with one issue at a time as it gets thrown our way. I'd have to say that I'm very proud of our progress and just wanted to share with all of you! Smile

I am so glad that things are looking up for you and that DH is being receptive and attentive to your needs. Sometimes it takes a little time but most of them do eventually "get it" - it took a major faux pas on the part of my SD 15 but my DH is now starting to understand where I am coming from. Smile

thats great. That must of been a very hard decison for u both but to know you needed it. The first step hey! about the sk's , you are doing the councelling together so stick together with the rules and support each other no matter what.... thats means hubby too. Hubby finally saw what his daughter had done but it was too late! goodluck!!!

It gives me a little bit of inspiration and a little kick in the rear to hear that other couples out there deal with the same crap and are able to come together stronger as a couple with some effort. Thank you for sharing your good news!
